Charlie Puth’s Blue Note residencies jumped from New York City to Los Angeles this week, and in Tinseltown, he welcomed a surprise celebrity guest to the stage: Actor and jazz pianist Jeff Goldblum.
“I love to give a new up-and-coming singer a chance,” Puth quipped prior to welcoming Goldblum to the stage.
The singer-songwriter and actor-jazz pianist linked up for a pair of songs at Friday night’s performance: A rendition of the jazz standard “Every Time We Say Goodbye” and an improvised take on Cyndi Lauper’s classic “Time After Time”:
Goldblum then quizzed the audience of much-younger Puth fans on which film he starred in alongside Lauper. No one, not even Puth, had the correct answer: The 1988 comedy Vibes.
Ahead of the release of his upcoming studio album Whatever’s Clever, due out March 6, 2026, Puth scheduled a pair of Blue Note Jazz Club residencies: In September, Puth debuted “Changes,” and a few other Whatever’s Clever! songs, during hisfour-night residencyat New York’s Blue Note Jazz Club, with one show featuring a cameo from one of Puth’s songwriting heroes, Kenneth “Babyface” Edmonds.
Puth’s four-show Los Angeles residency continues Saturday and Sunday night.
